Ministerial Training Program Curriculum

Our ministerial training program

consists of five levels and emphasizes personal mastery

through practical application of spiritual principles.

For 2,000 years we have emphasized the spiritual master outside of ourselves, such as Jesus Christ, Gautama Buddha, Muhammad, etc. But the Master Jesus came to show us each how to become the Christ, and our own Christhood must now become dominant.

Therefore, the focus of our training is to set each one free to become a master in his or her own right, externalizing his or her own Christhood and thus reclaiming the pristine state of consciousness in which we were originally created.

Our training program is built on weekend seminars, which are also open to anyone who has an interest.

LEVEL ONE: AWAKENING TO HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS

This first weekend covers a variety of topics with a main focuses on developing and mastering our own inner guidance. It is what the Bible calls the still small voice and what is also referred to as the soundless sound.

The ancient call and mission of the spiritual adept

Dogma vs. spiritual freedom

The discipline of spiritual cleansing

The art of spiritual tuning

Discerning the Spirits

Recognizing the still small voice

Developing the spiritual gifts of intuition, vision, prophecy, and healing

The second weekend continues our practice of meditation and guidance. It is an in-depth study of the mystical meaning behind each of the sacraments--their purposes and how to perform them.
